The last civilisation game I played was Civ2 - I loved it, but never got round to getting the 3rd one so lost interest.

have I missed much since, other than improved graphics?

They added religion in Civ4.

As well as larger maps, more civics, more techs, more resources, better diplomacy, better tech tree, better control over how $ is spent, ...

Simply put civ3 and 4 greatly improve an already solid experience. I expect civ5 to continue this trend.
